Building Code Amendments

Summary

The bill changes the State Construction Code so that additions, alterations, or repairs to an existing building do not have to follow the full set of new‑construction requirements, as long as the work does not make the building less safe. It also updates definitions, fire‑resistance rules, window‑egress standards, and inspection authority. The changes affect homeowners, builders, and local building officials across Utah.
